Resumen del Editor
I love creativity. Creativity has become a big part of my life. I can’t imagine life without fundamental creativity.
Being creative is a way to express yourself to the world. Many consider that only the arts offer an avenue of creativity, but they would be wrong.
I used to be a software developer and a software development manager and can tell you that some of these most creative persons I ever met were software engineers who write software for a living. The depth of creativity that these people exhibited in their work showed definite splurges of ingenuity in solving problems and in displaying information in great new ways.
Many famous designs in engineering are also very creative. The Golden Gate Bridge outside of San Francisco is a great example. Anyone who has seen this bridge can tell you how beautiful it is.
What about the iPhone? A lovely device which is good looking and has been engineered to provide incredible capabilities to the user. Isn’t this also an example of great creativity?
And many people think you are born being creative or not. That you can’t change your level of creativity. This is not true. You can definitely improve your creativity and use it in your professional or personal life.
There are many pieces of advice later in this book to help you work on your creativity. Having an “outside-of-the-box attitude" will help enhance your creativity and improve your life.

Ryan Babineaux and John Krumboltz have come to a compelling conclusion: happy and successful people tend to spend less time planning and more time acting. They get out into the world, try new things, and make mistakes, and in doing so, they benefit from unexpected experiences and opportunities. Drawing on the authors’ research in human development and innovation, Fail Fast, Fail Often shows readers how to allow their enthusiasm to guide them, to act boldly, and to leverage their strengths - even if they are terrified of failure.

In this thought-provoking exploration, Matthew May defines elegance as the elusive combination of unusual simplicity and surprising power, and pinpoints the four key elements that characterize it: seduction, subtraction, symmetry, and sustainability. In a story-driven narrative that sheds light on the need for elegance in design, engineering, physics, art, urban planning, sports, and work, May offers a surprising array of stories that illustrate why what's "not there" often matters more than what is.

You might've talked about innovation with your IT department or software development agency lately and the words "design thinking" were surely mentioned. So what is it? Just another piece of business jargon to add to your arsenal or a useful tool? Or maybe even an overestimated hype? Nowadays every organization or business runs into a myriad of problems as business models become increasingly more complex. Globalization and advances in communication and technology, all add up to creating unique opportunities but also new challenges that are not easy to solve applying the old tested methods.

For innovation and leadership guru Hal Gregersen, the power of questions has always been clear - but it took some years for the follow-on question to hit him: If so much depends on fresh questions, shouldn’t we know more about how to arrive at them? That sent him on a research quest ultimately including more than 200 interviews with creative thinkers. Questions Are the Answer delivers the insights Gregersen gained about the conditions that give rise to catalytic questions - and breakthrough insights - and how anyone can create them.
